1, p . e 5.0 JADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS 5.11.1 In lieu of the " control device" or "alam signal" required by paragraph

, 20.203(c)(2) of-10 CFR 20, each high radiation area (as defined in 5.20.202(b)(3) of 10 CFR 20) in which tLe intensity of radiation is 1000 mrem /hr or less shall'be barricade? and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area and entrance hereto shall be controlled by required issuance of a Radiation Work Pemit." Any individual or group of indi-

, viduals pemitted to enter such areas shall be provided with or accom-panied by.one or more of the following:

a. A. radiation monitoring' device which continuously indicates the

. radiation, dose rate in the area.

b. .A radiation monitoring device which continuously integrates the

. radiation dose rate in the area and alams when a preset inte-grated dose is received. Entry into such areas with this moni-

.toring device may be made after the dose rate level in the area has been established and personnel have been made knowledgeable of them.

c.- An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures who is equipped with a radiation dose rate monitoring device. This individual shall be responsible for providing positive control over the activities within the area and shall perfom periodic radiation surveillance at the frequency specified by the facility Health Physicist in the Radiation Work Pemit.

-5.11.2 The' requirements of 5.11.1, above,~shall also apply to each high radi-ation area in which the. intensity of. radiation is greater than 1000

. mrem /hr. In addition, locked doors shall be provided to prevent un-authorized entry into such areas and the keys shall be maintained under the administrative control of the Shift Supervisor on duty and/or the Plant Health Physicist with the following exception.

a. For localized Very High Radiation areas located in large areas such as containment, where no lockable-enclosure exists in the immediate vicinity of the Very High Radiation area to control access to the Very High Radiation area and no such enclosure can be readily constructed, then the Very ligh Radiation area shall be:

1. roped off,.

ii. ' conspicuously posted, and

iii . a flashing light shall be activated as a warning device.

• Health Physics personnel shall be exempt from the RWP issuance requirement during- the perfomance -of their assigned radiation L' protection duties, provided they comply with approved radiation protection procedures for entry into high radiation areas.

DISCUSSION The proposed' amendment was initiated to provide added protection

'and identification of those localized high radiation areas where dose' T rates in the containment exceed:1,000 mrem /hr. The proposed approach has been proven acceptable by the Commission- by incorporation into the Farley 1. Nuclear Station. Technical Specifications (Facility License NPF-

,2).

FEE JUSTIFICATION

..The proposed ' amendment is deemed to be Class III, within the

. meaning of 10 CFR'170.22.

It addresses a single safety issue and its acceptability has been recognized by Commission approval of similar

changes in the Farley 1 Facility License (NPF-2).
